A BRITISH man has died in Greece after being pulled unconscious from the sea.<\/p>\n
The 57-year-old was found yesterday on a beach in Zakynthos and taken to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It comes after a 4-year-old boy was swept out to sea in the same village, Laganas, just yesterday.<\/p>\n
Despite wearing a life jacket, the child was dragged away from the shore by strong winds before being later rescued by emergency services.<\/p>\n
According to local reports, the man was given emergency first aid from a lifeguard after he was pulled from the sea.<\/p>\n
He was then taken by ambulance to Zakynthos Hospital\u00a0where he was pronounced dead.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Neither the man or the boy have been named.<\/p>\n
Earlier in the summer, another Brit lost their life on the same island after\u00a0being crushed by his overturned quad bike\u00a0while on holiday.<\/p>\n
A second 19-year-old British national was inside the vehicle, but suffered only minor injuries.<\/p>\n
That same week,\u00a0two Irish teens lost their lives on the island of Ios.<\/p>\n
